JSBSIM Compile & Build / libtool not found

[doughodson]

I just tried to compile JSBSIM 1.1.6 using configure.... it doesn't locate libtool on my system, and indicates that it needs to be installed (or newer) -- I'm wondering if what I have is too new, and it not being located properly. I ended up installing and using cmake, which worked.

BTW, I'm glad to see interfaces to Julia!!! Thanks,
Doug

JSBSim no longer uses GNU's autotools to build. We are now using CMake.
Please make sure CMake is installed on your platform and try running the following commands from JSBSim root folder:

> mkdir build
> cd build
> cmake ..
> make

Would you encounter any problem in the process, don't hesitate to report the error messages you get in this discussion. We'll be glad to help.

Thanks. Keep in mind that JSBSim interface with Julia is still experimental at the moment so we'd appreciate any feedback about it.
